No-start after installing new plugs, & cap..could it be the ECU? 200 1993

Trying to get "el Avispon Verde" up to snuff to make the trip from Texas to Conn again. He's a 93 245. LH 2.4 injection system.
today I installed new Bosch platinum plugs (.30 gap) a new Bosch cap and a good used rotor. It ran for a bit, then died. Started up, ran very ragged then died for good. Cannot start up at all. Cranks like a demon, though. On board code reads 1 1 1. Spark present at both coil wire and at spark plug (though weak=yellow). took apart fuel rail, and cranked out a bunch of gasoline. Fuses are all OK,even the big ones by the battery. Replaced the fuel pump relay, tried a different coil,made sure the wires are on the cap correctly for the 1 3 4 2 firing order (clockwise).
I have removed the throttle body for cleaning.
I'm suspecting an ECU problem...are there any issues with 1993 ECU's?
thanks for any help.
